Thoughts to make you Smile

Windy days are exciting. They offer lots of opportunities for fun and rebirth. On the surface, it is easy to get caught up in the fear and intimidation of the torrent. But underneath, when you look beyond the bluster, it is exciting to see the potential for the exhilaration of running into the blustering leaves or charging into the oncoming force of nature.

I look at this as a metaphor for life in some ways. Life, on the surface, is scary. It is easy to get caught up in the intimidation of all the challenges we face on any given day. But underneath there is so much potential for exciting adventures and exhilarating surprises at every turn. Even for those with a calmer temperament, Life offers beauty and opportunities for serenity like the music the wind makes when it blows through the trees or the dance the leaves make as they flutter through the air on the back of the wind.​So, I encourage all of us to seize the windy day to go forth and seek every opportunity to enjoy a beautiful day full of adventure, beauty, excitement, and serenity. Whatever it is that you seek, find it billowing into your journey.​
